Hello, I have been using Area Track for Black Sun NPC's. It works sometimes.... other times I stumble on the BS NPC's and had never picked them up on Track.Is there some kind of glitch / bug? What is the range on box 2 of Track? I had measured mine to be about 385m. But I stand 90 meters from them and not have them on Track list. Makes me wonder how many times if overlooked them.


Thx folks!

You can only track whas has spawned and you need to havea PC in the are to make things spawn. If you are all alone out in the wilderness, you are the only one forcing spawns and therefore they tend not get tracked. This is why our best skill (tracking) is mediocre at best...

Using mounted track, I found 2 giant kimos and a kimolast night in about 15 min. Success rate 4 me has usually been about 20-30 min to track something I really want 2 find. Except the Gorax. Can't find one.


I think it takes 2 long. And it's so random, I really wouldn't call it tracking, so much as rolling the dice. Sometimes you get lucky.


I was solo and unbuffed. Took down the kimo and the giants ate me alive.
